Psalm 135

New Living Translation NLT

1 Praise the LORD ! Praise the name of the LORD ! Praise him, you who serve the LORD,

2 you who serve in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.

3 Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good; celebrate his lovely name with music.

4 For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own special treasure.

5 I know the greatness of the LORD — that our Lord is greater than any other god.

6 The LORD does whatever pleases him throughout all heaven and earth, and on the seas and in their depths.

7 He causes the clouds to rise over the whole earth. He sends the lightning with the rain and releases the wind from his storehouses.

8 He destroyed the firstborn in each Egyptian home, both people and animals.

9 He performed miraculous signs and wonders in Egypt against Pharaoh and all his people.

10 He struck down great nations and slaughtered mighty kings—

11 Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan.

12 He gave their land as an inheritance, a special possession to his people Israel.

13 Your name, O LORD, endures forever; your fame, O LORD, is known to every generation.

14 For the LORD will give justice to his people and have compassion on his servants.

15 The idols of the nations are merely things of silver and gold, shaped by human hands.

16 They have mouths but cannot speak, and eyes but cannot see.

17 They have ears but cannot hear, and mouths but cannot breathe.

18 And those who make idols are just like them, as are all who trust in them.

19 O Israel, praise the LORD ! O priests—descendants of Aaron—praise the LORD !

20 O Levites, praise the LORD ! All you who fear the LORD, praise the LORD !

21 The LORD be praised from Zion, for he lives here in Jerusalem. Praise the LORD !

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 Halleluyah! Give praise to the name of ADONAI! Servants of ADONAI, give praise!

2 You who stand in the house of ADONAI, in the courtyards of the house of our God,

3 praise Yah, for ADONAI is good; sing to his name, because it is pleasant.

4 For Yah chose Ya'akov for himself, Isra'el as his own unique treasure.

5 I know that ADONAI is great, that our Lord is above all gods.

6 ADONAI does whatever pleases him, in heaven, on earth, in the seas, in all the depths.

7 He raises clouds from the ends of the earth, he makes the lightning flash in the rain and brings the wind out from his storehouses.

8 He struck down Egypt's firstborn, humans and animals alike.

9 He sent signs and wonders among you, Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his subjects.

10 He struck many nations, and slaughtered mighty kings

11 Sichon king of the Emori, 'Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Kena'an.

12 Then he gave their land as a heritage, to be possessed by Isra'el his people.

13 ADONAI, your name continues forever, your renown, ADONAI, through all generations.

14 For ADONAI will vindicate his people, he will take pity on his servants.

15 The idols of the nations are mere silver and gold, made by human hands.

16 They have mouths, but they can't speak; they have eyes, but they can't see;

17 they have ears, but they can't listen; and they have no breath in their mouths;

18 The people who make them will become like them, along with everyone who trusts in them.

19 House of Isra'el, bless ADONAI! House of Aharon, bless ADONAI!

20 House of Levi, bless ADONAI! You who fear ADONAI, bless ADONAI!

21 Blessed be ADONAI out of Tziyon, he who dwells in Yerushalayim! Halleluyah!
